PSG-Dortmund: Vitinha sole leader, Mbappé still transparent… Discover the notes of the Parisians
Eliminated by Dortmund after two 1-0 defeats, Paris Saint-Germain failed in their quest for the Champions League, after a lackluster collective performance. If Luis Enrique’s men have “given everything”in the words of Vitinha to Canal+, the individuals of a workforce paid at a high price did not respond to the call and remain with a taste of unfinished business.
Not really reassuring at the start of the game, the Italian goalkeeper was able to gain momentum throughout the first period. Decisive during the lightning counters led by the BVB, he notably made a nice save, alone against Adeyemi (35th), before being caught by a header from Mats Hummels (50th), where, once again, the Italian preferred to stay on his line rather than going out to box.
A performance like his last months: too insipid to make the difference in the semi-finals of the Champions League. The Moroccan only succeeded in one of his eleven attempted crosses and was never able to combine with Ousmane Dembélé in front of him.
Author of a providential start to the game, demonstrating all the difficulties that PSG may have encountered in being dangerous in attack or reassuring in defense. A great first period quickly erased by Mats Hummels’ opener, coming from a corner stupidly conceded by the Parisian captain. Another jump in concentration that the Brazilian pays dearly for.
Holder by default due to the injury of Lucas Hernandez and the poor form of Milan Skriniar, the young Brazilian lost too many duels for a match of this scale (0 out of 2 duels played on the ground). Already at fault during the quarter-final first leg against FC Barcelona, he gradually lost track of his match after letting Mats Hummels slip behind his back on the German opener.
